The NFL Draft is one of the most exciting days on the NFL calendar. It not only signals the start of a new year, but it also gives everyone hope. From the best teams in the league looking to supplement their roster to the worst teams trying to start from scratch, the draft gives everyone hope.

It does feel like the 2025 rookie class has been a tiny bit underwhelming this year, but there have still been quite a few players who are making a name for themselves in their first season.
With just five more weeks left in the 2025 NFL season, it’s time to count down the 10 best rookies of the year thus far.
